[0007] In the component transfer apparatus shown in FIG. 7, when changing the layout of component transfer, a large gap is formed between the guide rails 101 A and 101 B of the adjacent equipment due to restrictions on the installation position of the equipment (see g 1 in FIG. 6). Even in the case where the error occurs, the adjustment guide rail 101C is attached to the gap, so that the substrate 100 does not get caught in the large gap and the trouble of transporting the substrate does not occur. However, when this apparatus is used, gaps (g2 and g3 in FIG. 7) occur between the adjustment guide rail 101C and the guide rail 101A or the guide rail 101B if the distance between the equipments changes even a little. There was a risk of transport problems. In order to reduce the gaps (g2 and g3 in FIG. 7) even when the distance between the equipments changes in this component conveying device, various lengths of the adjusting guide rails 101C are prepared. This is disadvantageous in that the cost of the apparatus is reduced.
